— Sue Pinks (about Jenny, Angela)

— Suzanne Robinson (about Jenny)
"Even though this was not a funeral, Heart of England could not have been more helpful. The staff were sensitive and understanding to my request, working promptly and efficiently to honour my Grandfather who had been tragically killed during the blackout in 1940, but whose grave was unmarked."
— David Booth (about Trudy)
"Your attention to detail and the dignity with which you handled everything meant so much to us. Your kindness will not be forgotten."

Excellent support and service received from the start of the process to the conclusion. Dad was treated with dignity and respect. The process was explained in a professional but very caring way. The whole family have been supported and there was always someone at the end of the phone if we needed anything. I would like to thank the two men who collected dad from home after his passing, also Jenny for guiding us through the process up to its conclusion. We would recommend this branch in Bedworth and would definitely return when the need arises.Thank you all so much.
